I'm an Eastwood fan and am interested as to what he says, and what the media makes of him afterwards.

Yeah I am Canadian but that doesn't mean that American politics are of no interest to me. The majority of my family are dual citizens, my father is an American taxpayer, so what happens in the US affects me too. Also, there is a good chance that I will one day work, go to school, or live in the States, and I think its important to understand the political structure of our neighbouring countries. It is an undeniable truth that America has a great effect on Canada in many different aspects and educating myself on things such as its political system can only be beneficial.

You speak the truth brother man. Don't bow down to the liberal antics on this site. There all a bunch of ski bums anyways.

When I read "this seat's taken" it automatically sounds like the kid on the bus in Forrest Gump.

Hearing that entire assembly cheer when he basically asked Obama to bring all the troops home made me laugh. It's like, oh, okay... it's alright if Bush goes to war, but now that we're at war, and Obama's in charge? BRING THEM HOME!! OMG WHAT IS WAR GOOD FOR!? as if they had been anti war from the beginning.


Eastwood is a libertarian. Therefore about 80% of that room disagree with half of his views - the stronger half of his views, seeing as he's been far more outspoken about his views on social issues.

...I mean the guy's from San Francisco, and when asked what he thought about Gays getting married he said "I don't give a fuck".

ya Eastwood is more like Ron Paul very low regulation taxes and spending even on defense.I disagree with lots of it but not the low defense spending part. However if the republicans were elected we would be in three oil wars in 2 years from now. (instead of 1)

Forget the oil wars... imagine all the spending and bullshit on combatting Abortion and Gay Marriage, Don't Ask Don't Tell, and all the other bullshit religion based crap they try to instill on the general public.

Talk about pork barrel bullshit waste of time that goes entirely against everything a true libertarian would believe in...
